Delicious Soda

Worse Than You Think

It's a pretty well known fact that drinking too much soda is bad for your health. It increases your chances for diabetes, obesity, weakens bones, and rots your teeth. But recent studies have shown that it can also negatively affect your kidneys.

18-1

Congrats to the New England Patriots on being the Giant pussies they are. Their head coach and most of their team is already in the tunnel to the locker rooms before the game officially ends so as to avoid the press following their historic loss to the underdog and road warrior New York Giants.

G-MENNNNNNNNNNNNN!!!

Knock knock

From the best of Craigslist

Oh hi, how's it going? It's me! Every girl ever. I'm really looking forward to this date. I'm not nearly as attractive as you remember me being because when we met the bar was dark and you were drunk. Come on in.

Let's start off with the unavoidable tour of my incredibly typical post-college-girl apartment.

Social Commentary

This is just a rant...

I hate a lot of things, so there is a lot I can rant about and complain about as far as the world goes, or the people in it. But since I'm sitting in class right now staring at these kids who I don't know, but annoys the crap out of me anyways, I'm going to rant about them.

Intro Photography - Part 1

Learning the Basics of Theory and Composition – Part 1

Taking pictures is a lot deeper than most people will admit to. I'm sure you all know somebody who takes plenty of pictures and posts them to Facebook or to their personal Flickr accounts to share, yet most of their pictures are poorly framed, out of focus, focused on the wrong subject, or maybe could just use some slight tweaking in order to improve.

Asians

A lot of people get confused when you say the word Asian. Asia is a big continent, and most people just assume that when you call a person Asian, you mean Chinese/Korean/Japanese. There is more than just those three...and I feel as if I should clarify it all, and classify the subdivisions. Why? Because its 4am, and I'm bored.

Man-Crush

It doesn't matter if you're a totally straight, manly-man guy. Every guy has their man-crushes. Perfect examples would be the entire male population of the state of Wisconsin's man-crush on Brett Favre, or every man in New England's crush on that terrible human being known as Tom Brady. But I'll have to admit, as a straight man, and a fan of spectator sports, I've got my man-crushes as well.

Eat Shit

Poop is Healthy for You

I get consistently frustrated by the way this society has become so ridiculously obsessed with sterilizing everything we touch, and getting prescription medications for the smallest of symptoms. This sickens me more than actually being sick.

Economic Stimulus Plan

So Dubya's plan to get us all some extra spending money to "stimulate the economy" has just passed through Congress. Whether or not this will actually make any difference in our slumping markets and the current recession we're going through is up for debate, but here's a rundown of some of the things that are included in this plan:

Counting Calories in NYC

Preventing Fat People from Ignoring Caloric Intake

The New York City Board of Health is pushing for legislation to be passed which requires certain restaurants within the city to post the calorie count for each of their menu items ON the menus themselves (rather than the usual separate sheet of optional paper). This was actually pushed through, and voted down last year (I think). The reason for its past rejection is the way that restaurants were selected to be required to show their caloric counts, and that has been amended in this year’s legislation.
